mt1,
IDE4Laszlo -- we (Laszlo Systems) haven't done anything with it and
don't plan to. Doesn't mean someone else can't do something with it.
One idea that we're discussing now is to kick off a project to make
an LZX-based graphical editor. It's scope would be limited to the
graphical layout, positioning, linkage, attributes, etc of LZX
objects. It would not be code editing-focused -- there are tons of
tools for that. It would be written in LZX, and would run in the
browser. It would support "round-trip" editing, so that you could
edit with an IDE/code editor, and then the visual editor, and then
the code editor again, without loss. The back-end, which would read
and manipulate the LZX files, would be written in Java, and would run
in the same context as OL itself.
What do you think of this approach? Right now it's just a concept.
